Vandenberg - Alibi

Digitally remastered edition of this 1985 album from the melodic Hard Rock/AOR outfit led by guitarist Adrian Vandenberg, who has been, quite rightly, hailed as one of the world's best Rock guitar players. Alibi was their third and final album. Recorded back in Holland, and issued in 1985, the record showcased all that was good about the band, with it's powerful riffs, melodic hooks and well-crafted arrangements. Once Again, it was Adrian who stole the show, writing all the songs, designing the artwork and providing a remarkable selection of guitar solos, contributions that would not go unnoticed amongst his contemporaries. Indeed, once Adrian had disbanded the band, David Coverdale approached him to join Whitesnake for their hugely successful 1987 album. Produced by former Golden Earring drummer Jaap Eggermont, Alibi, despite it's relative commercial failure, still holds firm as a record that combines all the great elements of Vandenberg's all too brief day in the sun, leaving behind a vapor trail that still impresses to this day.
